Thank you, Matt! Without a doubt the most informative fishing channel out there.

Dude! By far, the best Frog video out there. Thank you so much. I am that kind of person. I like to go in a different direction most times than everyone else. I just started using frogs literally last week. My friend said try it and I did. I got bit and oh my ! I am addicted to using frogs. Again, thanks for the video. I'm gonna watch your other ones and look at the frogs you suggested. God bless

Matt Allen is a KZread God amongst men. Not only is the advice great, but he explains thing clearly and concisely. This video is just another amazing addition to the Tactical Bassin library. Thanks Matt, please keep em coming

Definitely the most informative fishing channel out there. I watch every video you guys publish and have never been disappointed in the content. I have learned so much from you both. I love seeing you guys fish with family sometimes since they are the most important people in our lives. Also love the friendship you guys have as true friends are a close second right behind family.

And they don't have to make dumb clickbait titles for their videos or do dumb things just to get views...just straight fishing facts and a wealth of information.

The 7’2” HVY Curado is the exact rod I use for frogging. Made my day to see you pick up that rod!

Great Vidoe like usual! You guys are honestly the best fishing channel on KZread. I've recently fell in love with frog fishing the past few months and I've learned so much from you guys. Keep up the great stuff!!

Thank you Matt,WOW did you just cover EVERYTHING 👍👍 ,I use to throw a frog a lot and just fell away from it,bit it's time to bring it back 👊👊👍👍

“Wouldn’t it be nice to catch one together?” Lmao! The Mister Rogers of Froggin... I’m dyin here. Great stuff as always. Frog is by a long way my favorite way to fish and I never go out without a dedicated frog setup on my kayak. Using a 7’ heavy for me is the way to go. Big guy but I think the kayak makes the heavy work better for hookset than an X.

Got my first 3 on a Walmart frog today. So dang fun. Great video Matt, keep me coming!!!

I caught my first three on frogs a couple of weeks ago and it's my favorite way to fish now. My son got his first too and it was the biggest of the day. I'm addicted for sure.

Y'all have helped me improve on froggin' so much! I accidentally trimmed one of the legs shorter than the other, but it seems to help me walk the frog much easier.

Great video! I've definitely learned a lot and improved a lot with frog fishing because of your videos. Yesterday evening I went on a body of water where a lot of guys throw frogs, but all from bass boats or the bank. Being a kayak angler has its perks! I found a 6 inch deep channel that went on for a good 100' that opened up to a semi open water Lily pad field that was untouched by anglers. It was like stepping or paddling into another world. Got on some big bass, got some beautiful photos, and some cool slow motion release footage. You and Tim should get those kayaks out more. See if there are places that only small watercraft can get you into that no one else can get to. You may just find a hidden Oasis inside of a heavily fished body of water like I did. Thank you again for all the informative videos! Tight lines 🎣

Your video got me amped yesterday went out on my kayak and nailed a handful of fish got one really nice 6 pounder all on a scum frog love it thanks for getting me motivated

As this is my first year taking fishing seriously, you guys have given me a lot of great tips and tricks! Love the frog tips especially! Thank you for resparking my love for fishing!

You guys have definitely gave my frogging game a huge boost !! It's became my favorite style of fishing by far 🎣

Matt. Dude i could sit and listen to you all day long. You get me so interested in your story on what ever you are trying to get across that it is just amazing. I mean really. I have never just watched half of your vlogs. And Thank you...

Thanks for all your time and effort you and Tim put into the videos, It’s also great to see the channel grow you guys deserve every bit of success you get. Maybe one day I’ll get to meet you guys!

Really appreciate the time that you and Tim take to make fishing tips for every fisherman that watches your channel!! 👊🏼 💪

Most EXCELLENT advice on equipment matching for the person, not just the type of fishing.

I just tried the Gavacho out here in AZ last week, and that thing just flat out works. Thanks guys for all the tips.

Frogging is my favorite way to catch bass nothing like seeing a frog get smashed. Love it

Caught my pb frog fish yesterday after watching this video!!! 4-7 blew up where current met the still water of a lake. Tacticalbassin is the best on KZread! Thanks for all the tips!

Tim, the best bass fishing teacher I know!

I appreciate your tips!! Im a smaller guy and made the adjustments with rod and line and went from 0-4 to 3-3 the next weekend. Awesome content that is on point 🔥

Once again, phenomenal info! Great vid bro! Evergreen SS frog was gettin torn up for me a few weeks back.... walks so easily, pretty cool frog dude

Love frog fishing you never know what is going to bite one of my best experience is fishing for bass and you get a 42 inch musky love it.....thank you for the video....

Love the setup of this video! I love tips but I also enjoy seeing them in action!

I have never fished a frog. My buddy just gave me one. I haven't even looked at it much. I'm off with another friend tomorrow to a lake known for big bass in NC. I can't wait to try what I have learned here. My thanks to you and Tim for your videos.

Awesome video. Great tips that I’m going to try on Kentucky Lake next week. Thanks for all your content.

I learned about the Gavacho frog from you two and I've caught a lot of bass on it. Thank you!

Love frog fishing,thanks for the tips! Your a heck of a teacher,keep tight lines!

Frog fishing is awesome !

Man u deserve every bit of what "success" you've gained,. It's because you've always stayed your humble, real , self. Thanks for that

Best part of the video. "Don't be afraid to be different" 😍

I try everything Matt an Tim suggest to the t an I been catching good fish these guys are amazing at teaching newer guys how to get better much appreciation guys keep it coming !!!!!!!

The reason I throw a frog more than any other topwater is really just the versatility. You can walk it along a brush pile, throw it INTO that brush pile then haul off into 30 yards of pads and grass....it’s equally at home all those places. A lot of guys say they have issues with hookups and I used to. I just woke up one day and said “I’m going to learn how to frog and that’s it...I’m not stopping until I catch something with one”. Went out with determination, caught some and now it’s a confidence bait. Same thing with jigs...I spent nearly 20 years saying “I don’t wanna deal with jigs”. Bit the bullet one day and stuck a decent bass under the FIRST DOCK I put one. Felt a little weight on my line, watched it start moving to the side and BAM...another new confidence bait by the end of day one. You just have to use these baits. They work...trust me, they all work...

Matt Allen the frog whisperer !!!

Just started to frog fish. Got one. Fun!

I'ts fun being able to toss it just about anywhere!

Thanks, Matt! Enjoyed this. Seeing you actually wonder why you weren't getting bit was real! Thanks for the tips. I got my PB last Sept on a frog - 7.25lbs. Since then the biggest fish I've managed is 3.5lbs ON ANYTHING! this year frogging here in my area in CA has been really slow. I keep trying, keeping the faith, but not getting a ton of bites and then I'm missing most. Hopefully it picks up! Have a great one.

Ive found that setting the hook with the rod tip down towards the water helps increasing hook up rates versus setting the hook with the rod tip up. Went from loosing tons of strikes to landing about 3/4 of them.

Been walkin the heck out of the frogs lately. Gavacho is sick, bully wa too, they walk with ease. Your information has become my new standard, I don't think other ppl have as much experience to back up what they're putting out there.

I fish in Europe and once i was frog fishing. Little do i know that in that pond there ara pike that really like frogs. Threw it in there and a nearly 3ft pike jumped on it. Light line, light rod, an byebye froggy

Absolutely my favorite channel guys. I smiled when you pulled out the sprinker frog with the twin little blades because I have that one. Have yet to catch anything with it yet though.

1 year later and this video is worth coming back to and watching! I am still throwing the Bully Wa and Spro's on a MH rod, open water and light cover only.

Thanks Matt!!

Man, can you imagine spending a few days with Matt and pick his brain? That would be a fisherman's dream. Bless you all at Tactical Bassin!

I love Frog fishing.

Frog videos are my favorite BY FAR! I love to throw the Bully Wa 2 but I choose to throw it on a 6'8" - 7' MH rod. I think another thing to consider on frog rods is how comfortable it is. I tend to go all day with just a frog tied on. Thanks again for the great content!

I throw mine on a 6' 9" fitzgerald skipping rod and I have a couple of 7' 2" mh moderate and they work awsome.. I don't like longer rods with the exception of cb rods

Matt, your the man! 😎

I use a 7’6 13 fishing Defy Black MH on 30lb and I’ve landed probably 80% of the bites this year. Great advice

still hvnt caught a bass on a frog yet but with all the froggin vids bout to get a huge blowup tonight thx

Great in depth video. Makes me want to get out and do some froggin 🐸

My PB came on a cheap $3 frog from a "big box store" - Just a little hollow body Kermie.. Great video as always, Matt!

It's all about confidence. I learned to frog fish with a Ugly Stik rod from Walmart and 10 pound mono. I finally upgraded to a medium heavy casting combo with 20 pound braid and do just fine with a frog.

Man that reel really sings! It’s beautiful!

Met DC?

You guys are the best 👍🏻

I use a 7'10" heavy, 65 lb braid, and my preference is a Booyah pad crasher, I learned 2 tricks, I drop a rattle inside and wrap the hooks with braid inside the frog so they don't separate as easy, makes the hooks last 3 times as long. I've also learned when it gets out of the weeds I dead stick it a little longer, then walk it half way back to me. Thanks Matt!!!!

Definitely had to get used to my 7'3 heavy since I'm a smaller guy. Thought I had the first fish curse on my new rod but finally got used to it and now man!

You dudes are awesome!!

You are selling yourself short Matt if you’re not trying a solid bodied frog. The best on the market in my opinion is the Stanley Ribbit frog. I use 40-50 lb braid with a single 5/0 hook with the twist lock. I am absolutely addicted to this frog. It fishes must faster than a hollow frog. I keep one tied on year around. Please give this frog a chance. I think if you try it then you WILL find a place in your arsenal for it. I fish in Alabama. 90% on the Coosa river. I love the videos that you and Tim make. Hopefully y’all will come to the Coosa river and hook into these bad ass spotted bass we have here. Enough preaching hookem good brother.

"Bonus Bites" Are the Best lol. Another great TB session on the frog. Always seem to take away somthing from the videos keep it up guys!

excellent tips!!! as always thank you!!

Love videos where you try and catch some fish while chatting.

I use a frog made by Orvis. It slays. Some of the heavier fly patterns like the frog or dragon tail work great for Large Mouth.

Great video like always learned something. Your content is awesome . Keep up the good work and till the next one. Primo

Wouldn't have to catch a single fish in a 25 min video and no one complains about an "only casting" video. Clearly your viewers love watching videos - packed with awesome information

Here in Illinois, especially on small water, there is a LOT of vegetation both in, and under the water. I love throwing frogs all the time!

Thanks matt

Got my little alen in the mail yesterday n nailed 3 nice fish with it and 2 on a jackal karah frog n another really nice 3.5 or 4 pounds this morning on my way to work

Love frog fishing but just hasn't been very successful for me this year. Will definitely try some of your suggestions. I learn something in everyone of your videos. Thanks for all the great info Matt!

Just subscribed man great info and that casting skill is amazing man not sure what did it 👍 🎣

I'd be happy getting 3 frog videos a week all year...

I like the sound of the reel when its casting

Love your videos and tips. I just ordered some of your recommended frogs cuz I just pulled one of my frogs out of the tackle box and the leg fell off...too old, dry rot. Time to up my game.

Love the videos, and love that Gavacho. The shadow of that camera kinda reminds me of Mystery Science Theatre!

Gotta love that dc sound

Great video I love catching fish on a frog especially from the bank you guys should do a bank fishing video

My favorite frog rod was a 7' 6" Medium Lite Extra Fast Action Avid series spinning rod with 20lb braid. Never had an issue with the line breaking. Did loose a few fish that went into cover. I would reel up to them in my kayak, still under tension, then realized the fush was gone. The point is most people would never even try that set up for frog fishing because advice the one found in this video says the same thing every else says. I am moving up to a 7' 6" medium heavy nrx plus and sure that I'll be just fine.

#tacticalbassin frog vids def helped land more frog/fun fish this year. Awesome vid

good info

Love the smaller bully wa and spittin wa. I’ve got about four of each

Thank you for all you do, enjoy learning from your vids. This tip on walking the frog was helpful. Walking the bait on my backhand(yes, I am a tennis pro( is easier than on my forehand. The reason I mention this what tip do you have for me on walking the bait on my forehand side???

Love to hear that DC sing!

Are you guys doing more road trips this year? those are some of my favorites videos you guys do, really shows how to break down new waters.

Awesome tips, live near Clear Lake😁👌👍

You guys need to do a toad video as well. Some reason, I been getting a lot of bites on toad because I think too many folks are throwing frogs. Everyone seem to forget about the good ol'toad.

@ScuffedEngineer

I think their older toad video is still relevant.

I'm 5' 7" and a 6' 10" medium-heavy extra fast is perfect for me. My hook up ratio is high. I rarely miss a fish even without modifying hooks. The shorter rod is key for me.

God bless spread his word!

I would love to see you test the Z man pop frogz , they work here in Oregon. Love all your video's.

Frog fishing is somthing that I dont do much but I'm getting the hang of it

I think it was the Spittin' Wa vid you guys did a while back?....Epic Froggin' Action! Insane hook sets! The best Frog promo I've ever seen!

Whenever the bass are blowing bluegill out of the grass and I want to draw their attention away from the bluegill they are chasing... I have a Bully Wa 2 with a #5 o-ring on it. You can rip it once very hard and the o-ring makes the frog do a 180 and also spits a ton of water, while for the most part the frog stays right in the target area. Pause a couple of seconds and repeat. I am trying to make the most possible commotion with each rip. This technique has been very successful for me and the explosions you get are amazing.

So I've been occasionally throwing a frog in the mornings this summer, actually been throwing it and or a whopper plopper. I have not caught a single fish on either. I've had quite a few swirls on the frog, but it's like they wont commit to blowing up on it. I bought a 7'4" heavy bass x for frogging and paired it with a curado k and 65# braid. I've tried the little Allen, The white version, live targets frog in white. Savage gear a little smaller one in black. The gavacho . Today I down sized to a 7'1" mh and threw the little jackall one you recommended a few videos back. Had one just barely swirl on it.. so either I'm doing something wrong. Fishing it to late in the morning . Or the bass in my lake are crazy, or something. I actually dont fish the frog very long anymore because they wont bite. Last year a caught a few . My home lakes are relatively small compared to how many guys fish it. And its pretty much beat up by now and hard to catch more than a couple fish in a day. I need to start branching out to other semi close public lakes. Which closest one that doesnt have a motor restriction is over 2 hours away.
